Аннотация:In order to accomplish medium to long term targets, Turkey has to transform its structure of exports.This study aims to explore the structural transition in exports between 1995 and 2013.The calculations confirm increasing sectoral diversification and technological intensity in terms of share in total exports.On the other hand, when we focus on revealed comparative advantages, it shows that, Turkey still specializes in labor and capital intensive sectors which involves less research activity.Lastly, between 1995 and 2013 there has been a strong market diversification which implies lessening market risk via lessening market concentration.However it should be stated that, this also implies a weak potential for export growth generated by exporting same products to new markets.
